Direct detection of MeV-scale dark matter utilizing germanium internal amplification for the charge created by the ionization of impurities
Abstract Light, MeV-scale dark matter (DM) is an exciting DM candidate that is undetectable by current experiments. A germanium (Ge) detector utilizing internal charge amplification for the charge carriers created by the ionization of impurities is a promising new technology with experimental sensit...
